M-Audio Firewire 410 & GB 2 not working

I am having a problem trying to get the M-Audio Firewire 410 to work with GB 2... I keep getting a dialog box reading... 'Check other applications using Timer or MIDI (code 0)
Can anyone point me in the right direction to make these to work together?
Thanks !

I have downloaded the latest driver that but now unable to open GB2 ???
Very strange. I have no clue what is going on with this Firewire 410.

  • Help! My Macbook Pro will not recognise my M-Audio Firewire 410 interface

    Hi
    I'm new here and fairly new to Macs having only recently bought a Macbook Pro.
    My plan is to use the Macbook primarily for music but I can't get my M-Audio Firewire 410 audio interface working.
    I have installed the latest Intel driver but when I plug the interface in, the Mac does not recognize it at all. I have tested the port/cables etc, and can successfully play music from an external firewire HDD chained through the Firewire 410.
    How is it possible that the Mac doesn't even know the interface is there (when I click on the M-Audio software icon I get this message "No M-Audio Firewire device was found connected to this Mac") yet I can play music chained through the device?
    I have tried both with, and without, the external power supply connected to the Firewire 410 and also tested it on my PC where it works as usual. And I've tried deleting and reinstalling the driver....(I thought this was PC only territory!)
    Any ideas? I really want to get back into music and my past (bad) experiences with PCs drove me to the Mac...
    Many thanks in advance
    Macbook Pro 2.16 Core 2 Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Try v1.8.2 instead of v1.7.2 of M-Audio's driver setup.

  • Installing m-audio firewire 410

    i just bought a m-audio firewire 410 soundcard. to make sure i would install it properly, i followed every step of the user manual. still, it's not working. the blue LED light keeps flashing, my mac is not even detecting the soundcard.
    i don't know what to do...
    please help!!!!

    from my understanding, the bluetooth device is not getting power and that could be various reasons. it's dying, you have some new installed hardware that is draining from the bluetooth power thingy. haha. but yea, if you were able to the power manager reset, then it was just a minor draining thing.
    this thing happened to me when i had a bluetooth mouse, usb mouse, mbox, external monitor, usb keyboard, iLok usb dongle, usb hard drive all plugged in. hahaha. my computer was like, are you serious! but after all of that craziness. i reset, and it's fine!

  • M-Audio Firewire 410.....

    I've recently purchased an M-Audio Firewire 410 after using a n M-Audio firewire Solo for ages and being very happy.
    Whoa! The Mac ( intel iMac) doesn't even want to acknowledge the presence of the 410, let alone Logic have a go.Jim
    I think I'm stuedf.........any magic answers?

    Just a note to all those others who have or are considering the 410. I have a 410, which I was using on my old PC. It wasn't working on my new 24" iMac. I called M-Audio and they said that their driver needs to be updated, and it should be out in a few weeks. From other threads I've read, this is what they were saying a few weeks ago.
    I say this to save some of you the frustrations of getting your 410 to work with a core 2 duo running 10.4.7. Don't waste your time. Either wait for the driver to come out, or switch.
    I'm getting really tempted to switch to Presonus.

  • M-Audio Firewire 410 - No Output - Intel iMac 20"

    Hey Guys,
    I was wondering if anyone is having trouble with the M-Audio Firewire 410 and the Intel Core Duo iMac.
    System Specs:
    20" iMac 1 GB of RAM
    I am running the beta driver from M-Audio (1.7). The trouble I have is that I get no output. I see the channel lights active. I see the audio transitioning in the Mixer panel. The Firewrie 410 works fine on my PowerBook. I also have an M-Audio Firewire Solo and it works on both machines (with the same cables and hookups). I'm not getting very far with M-Audio on this one. I just wanted to see if it is me or if anyone else out there is having trouble.

    Hi !
    I have a similar problem to the one you already solved. Maybe you could suggest something (maybe I can avoid reinstalling everything).
    Ive being using m-audio firewire 410 (driver version 1.7.2) together with a MacBook Pro (Intel Mac OSX 10.4.7) since a couple of months without having any problem. But the last week my computer had an "unexpected problem" and I had to shut it down using the power button. After I restarted it again, I realized that even if I get a signal on the sw rtn1/2 when I use itunes or Garageband, I get no signal on any of the assigned output bus (I have a m-audio 5.1 surround system). The funny thing is that when I use an analog input, I actually get signal on the assigned output bus of this input. I uninstalled and reinstalled again the drivers of the m-audio 410 firewire without any success.
    I would really appreciate any comments.
    Thanks in advance,
    Rodrigo

  • M-Audio Firewire 410 soundcard problem on Windows on new iMac

    I've had this problem since I got the new iMac. When running Windows natively, with all Boot Camp 2.0 (same with the older Boot Camp) drivers installed and the latest drivers for my M-Audio Firewire 410 for Windows XP Pro, I haven't been able to use the sound card at all. Everything installs perfectly, the control panel works, but the hardware won't respond to any sound playback. I'm not sure if it's the Boot Camp drivers for my iMac or if it's my interface. It worked fine through Boot Camp with my MacBook Pro, but not the new Aluminum iMac. Using it with Ableton Live 6/7 fails. Playing it from iTunes fails. Everything fails. My interface is basically rendered useless on Windows. I believe it's an iMac + Boot Camp problem, not the interface. Audio program forums didn't help, so I cam here. Hope someone can help. Thanks!

    from M-audio...
    M-Audio does not support Boot Camp on Intel based Macs at this time.
    The problem is that there is no BIOS on Mac Intel systems and getting devices to work on some XP systems requires BIOS/OS tweaks. Boot Camp works around the need for BIOS; Windows does not. Windows installations are not always consistent and the fact it works on one Intel Mac does not mean it will work on another.
    Attempting to install any M-Audio device or drivers in Boot Camp is done solely at the user’s own risk.
    Here is a website that has many troubleshooting tips that can help get devices to work on XP and MAY work for Boot Camp; however this is all done at the users own risk.
    http://www.pcaudiolabs.com/setuptips1.asp?cat=setu
    For M-Audio FireWire devices:
    Switching from Mac to PC the FireWire device may not always load the firmware properly. To get the PC firmware to load you may have to boot into XP then shut down, disconnect, reconnect and reboot. Switching from PC to Mac automatically loads the correct firmware.
    If this workaround does not fix your issue, you will have to run the device solely on Mac OS or on Windows hardware.

  • Rookie needs help recording DJ set through M-audio Firewire 410

    Ok.... ive been reading through the forums and I still can't find help...
    Im running GB 3 that came with my Macbook I bought about 4 months ago.
    I am a DJ and I trying to record a DJ set/demo.
    What I use to DJ is Pioneer cdj-800 x2 and a Pioneer DJM400 using Rane Serato Scratch through my Mac.
    I recently bought an M-Audio Firewire 410.
    I installed all necessary drivers from m-audio's website (i bought it on ebay so it did not come with the install cd).
    I connect the Maudio into the Mac as instructed and set all my inputs/outputs in prefs to the m audio.
    The record out of my mixer is via rca so i bought an rca to 1/4" cable. The rca going into my mixer and the 1/4" is going into the first "mic/inst" on the interface.
    I created a real instrument track on a new project in GB and set the input to channel 1 (mono).
    I play a track..... no sound. nothing at all. i tried the inputs in the back of the firwire and played with the gains. still nothing. i am getting a little frustrated here as you can imagine.
    I would really appreciate if someone could walk me through this or at least point me in the right direction.
    Thanks a ton in advance.

    Perhaps you may need to reinstall the driver again from the M-audio website. The newest drivers don't work well but if you're running the newest OSX 10.4.10 then you have no choice but to use the newest drivers. When installing the new driver, do not have the 410 hooked up to the computer. After it is installed, shut down the computer. Hook up the 410, then turn the computer on, make sure teh 410 is power button is on as well. Once you're computer is up and running, open up the m-audio mixer application that comes with the driver. on the top right-hand corner is a reset button. Click that and a there will be a popup asking if you want to reset, say reset. Next open up system preferences and check the sound. Select the 410 for input and output. You have to also do this again in garagebands prefs. Test your audio out by playing a song through itunes or something. Hope it works.

    Hi,
    Back from my "rescue mission" ...
    Firstable, to answer the last post, yes I tried on different computers but it was windows PC.
    Anyway, I tried ...older drivers (1.8/1.7/1.7.2) ...not working.
    I tried to close airport (not bluetooth cause my mouse use it) ...not working.
    So I decided to buy and install Leopard ...and it's working great.
    In fact, after some research my problem was a frequency problem who came from a disfunction between my card and my mac. But why this problem ...because of apple !!!
    Yes It seems the last security update 2008-002 from apple can not be "trusted"
    Bring a lot of problem ...as mine.
    So maybe I bought leopard for nothing ...but is great too so I'm ok
    Thx again for all your ideas.
    See u.

  • Problems monitoring audio with a m-audio Firewire 410 card

    So I have a M-Audio 410 hooked up through the firewire port on my G5, But it geeks out (audio turns to loud noise, strange defects, spinning ball of slowness appears) everytime I try to monitor audio out of final cut, also when I play LARGE quicktime files!!! The card works fine for all other applications I have on my mac, Cubase, iTunes etc... Anyone else have heard of this, or know what to try. I have most of my video on an external drive, a LACIE media drive, which is my only option as I am working with large amounts of video.
    I am thinking this is an issue with the bandwith of firewire on the computer. Maybe too much information between the audio card, and accessing the drive through the other firewire port. Any thoughts?

    Hello, I was just about to post the following when I saw your recent post, Wondering if you ever found a solution for what you're running into? (BTW, I went to UO a looooong time ago. Go Ducks!)
    We'd like enhance the audio end of our edit suite and are thinking of adding an "FireWire 410" from m-audio for I/O. And ProTools.
    But we've read here and there in forums that there may be a problem with Firewire I/O (and maybe the m-audio "FireWire 410" in particular?) and confusion with decks like the DSR-11, etc. Disturbs the video on an external broadcast monitor.
    One note: we don't think we'd necessarily be sending audio from the DSR-11 to the "FireWire 410" (and on to headphones and speakers) via firewire.
    Anyone out there using FCP and the "FireWire 410" who could comment?
    Thanks,
    Brad

  • Help! Trouble with M-Audio Firewire 410 MIDI Compatability

    I am currently working on an iMac running OSX 10.4.11. I have been unsuccessful in trying to use a Yamaha P-70 keyboard, running through my M-Audio Firewire 410 using the MIDI input to record MIDI sounds in Garageband. I have had great success with this in the past before this version of iLife with the Garageband updates. My computer recognizes I have a MIDI device, and I have changed the proper settings both on the control panel and within Garageband to reading the M-Audio Firewire 410, yet I am not getting any signal from the keyboard as a MIDI instrument and therefore cannot record any sounds. Does anyone have any suggestions, or is this something perhaps someone else has dealt with already? I appreciate your help!

    Very interesting. Couple of questions for you:
    1. Did it only affect MIDI instruments or real instruments as well?
    2. If it stopped working with GB, what did you to fix the problem? Would it possibly work with Logic? I have contemplated purchasing that software.
    3. Do you know of any fixes for the 410?

  • Help with Powering m-audio firewire 410

    Hi to All
    I just got a Mac book Pro, and I own an m-audio firewire 410 interface. The Mac works wonderfully and I´m extremely happy with it and the 410 together.
    Does Anyone know if there is a way to power the interface with the AC adapter, whithout powering it through the 6 pin Firewire port when using batteries ?
    To My understanding, the 6 pin ports always can power devices.
    Thanks for Your Help, and sorry of any English glitch

    I have a MacBook Pro and a M-Audio Firewire 410. As we speak, I am running a six pin firewire cable to the Firewire 410 as well connecting it to the supplied AC power adapter. Nevertheless, I use it primarily with my PowerMac G5. When connected to the G5, I have both the 6 to 6 pin firewire connector and the supplied AC power power adapter connected and sending power to the unit. Nowhere in the manual does it say that you cannot connect the AC power adapter to the FW 410 while a six pin (powered) firewire cable is in use. It does say that the AC adapter is included to power the unit when a computer with four pin firewire ports (the kind that don't supply power) is connected to the FW 410. As bus power from a firewire port is often the victim of RFI from the components in the computer, I was advised by M-Audio tech support to utilize external power whenever feasible to increase the SN ratio on the device. So basically they told me to connect both at the same time. I assume that the FW 410 knows when it is receiving power from the AC adapter and knows to not utilize the power from the firewire bus simultaneously. If you are really worried, I suggest you call M-Audio tech support and let them tell you what I just did. One final thought: I have used my FW 410 with two power sources (firewire and DC in) for the two years since I've had the unit. It doesn't work as well as it used to...now that the drivers have improved, it works much better a than it used to. I hope this answers your question.

  • Setting up m-audio firewire 410 as an aggregate device

    Having an issue setting up my m-audio firewire 410 as an aggregate device. When I set it up it gives of this God awful distortion sound. I had it set up to my G4 with no problems. But then I upgrade to a MacBookPro, got the latest driver for this version and model, and still...nothing. Any ideas? I need to record and this is really bugging me.

    It doesn't sound good with anything else. I just updated the newest driver and I am still unable to get rid of that radio static distortion sound. It is becoming very frustrating. I know it has something to do with the fact that I'm on a new Mac, because I got it to work with my PBG4 and it still does. It would be kind of stupid to record with the PBG4 but not my MacBookPro. Unless I just get another interface altogether. I shouldn't have to. It's still a great inerface. There's got to be a way to fix this issue. I'm just running out of patience. Thanks anyway.

  • Share sound between XP and Archlinux computer [M-AUDIO firewire 410]

    Hi,
    This might be a strange question but anyway,
    I bought a M-AUDIO firewire 410 soundcard about 3-4 yeas ago, i never had a problem with it, and now that i've tasted the sound produced by the device, i can't get rid of it,
    I've searched for over one year in order to make it work under linux (tried FreeBOB, wine...), no success in making it work under arch (or unbuntu for that matter), but that's not the point of this topic
    The only solution that i've found can be by "sharing" the audio from my main computer (wich is running archlinux) to an auxiliary computer running Windows XP and has the firewire 410 plugged and installed.
    My question is, does anyone knows a way to share the audio buffer from my arch computer to my auxiliary computer without loosing too much quality ? Both computers are connected over ethernet at a speed of 1Gbts/sec
    I think it might be tricky, tried googleing it, but no success.
    I Consider myself as an advanced linux user, so fire away !

    s/pdif seems to be for such situations. You could also try running some networked sound daemon, pulseaudio supposedly runs on windows as well, not sure what support phonon has for networked audio.

  • Warning - M-Audio Firewire 410 and 10.5.2

    Note that since upgrading to 10.5.2, my M-Audio Firewire 410 does not work and I receive an error message suggesting I re-load the drivers. Have not investigated in detail but I wanted to give a 'heads-up' to others thinking of upgrading. M-Audio do not yet have drivers for Leopard.

    The fw410's not hot swappable anymore - a power down is alway needed if youve plugged it in while osx is running... 10.5.1 you could hot swap and it would work!
    something has changed?
    I think its about time m-audio came out with a new 10.5.x update... we havent had one since April 07 for 10.4.9
